No, I don't lick fish.
Hey guy from fort lauderdale, use to live in keys years ago. i picked up a 98 2dr xj about a month back while on deployment, in a day or two from now i will finally be able to see my baby for the first time, this will be my 3rd jeep, had a yj on 33s, and cj7 on 35s before. I use to wheel at the hump alot years ago alot, so i got a new jeep to get back in the mud again. but I got a question, im looking for a good tire shop in broward county, or north of broward (wont go south past davie, hate driving down south) I want to get new tires, specifaclly new mud tires to replace the ko1's, that are already on it. cause the PO's said they were 2 years old, but i dont trust the tires. Is there any good shops, that has good prices, and wont try to rip you off on tires? thanks
P.S. also, besides morris, and 4 wheel parts, any one got any other shops they can suggest, for things like bumpers, winches, some armor type stuff and lockers. thanks.

Seems my XJ threw the dreaded Evap codes again. Just had $300 worth of worth to try and fix it prior to me buying it. All that $ and they didnt replace the gas cap...SMH Ordered a new OEM one for delivery Wed. Hope it helps.
Also working on figuring out why the drivers side power lock doesn't work. Makes the right noises but no actual movement. I felt the actuator but didnt feel any arm. Need to read more about the set up to understand how is functions.
Thanks for the welcome too. Should have the XJ at my house this weekend after I take the go fast parts off the WRX. Storing it in Ft Myers at the moment.
Anyone have exp with this cheaper NSS?

Plan to "wiggle" or clean mine first. At that price I might just replace.
*anyone interested in a 2010 WRX Premium LMK. I'm the 2nd owner and took great care of the car. Hate to see it sent to Carmax but o well.

Morris is right near us off Atlantic. I've outfitted 2 Jeeps using them and couldn't be happier. Saves on shipping.

Jessie was offered a good position in a repair shop overseeing Jeep customers right down the road.
Can't hold it against anyone who wants to better themselves. They went for it.
Me, I travel all over S FL for work. Even my Army Unit is in Ft Lauderdale. I drive the desert tan Comanche.
